Sale Overview

Siblings to the likes of Group 1 winners Happy Trails, Faint Perfume, Ortensia, Alinghi, Le Romain and Extreme Choice headline a stellar catalogue for the 2018 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale, to be held from March 4-7.

The catalogue features 770 yearlings, 505 of which are Super VOBIS nominated and 339 BOBS eligible.

Of the 770, a total of 541 (70%) are Victorian-bred.

Among the catalogue are half or full relations to 88 Stakes winners, while progeny of 103 Stakes-winning mares are also included in the catalogue.

There are 120 stallions represented led by Written Tycoon (49), Toronado (44), Zoustar (39) and Reward For Effort (25) while 23% of the catalogue is filled by progeny of the 26 First Season Sires represented including Group 1 racetrack performers Puissance de Lune, Dissident, Proisir, Wandjina and Adelaide.

Day 1 will again feature the popular Blue Riband session, where 43 select yearlings which our Bloodstock team believe will make the best Classic and staying types will be offered.

The Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale will be held at Oaklands Junction from Sunday March 4 until Wednesday March 7, 2018.
